USC-Tennessee kickoff scheduled for noon

COLUMBIA, SC (WIS) – The South Carolina
Gamecocks and Tennessee Volunteers will kick off at noon on Saturday,
October 19, the SEC announced today. The game will be televised nationally on
ESPN.

The No. 14/12 Gamecocks are off to a 4-1 start this
season, including a 2-1 mark in the SEC. They will travel to Fayetteville this
weekend for a matchup with the Arkansas Razorbacks (3-3, 0-2 SEC). Tennessee
(3-3, 0-2 SEC) is idle this week.

Tennessee leads the all-time series, 22-7-2, including a
14-2 advantage in Knoxville. South Carolina has won each of the last three
meetings. They had never won back-to-back meetings against the Vols prior to
the current streak. Carolina won by a 38-35 count in Columbia last season and
by a 14-3 margin in 2011, the last time they met in Knoxville.

LSU football fans ready to grab autographs and take pictures with their favorite Tiger players and coaches at the school's annual Fan Day will have to wait a little while. Sports information director Michael Bonnette confirmed to WAFB-TV that the event has been moved to the spring, in conjunction with the Tigers' spring football game. |^
